My Jewellery Obsession

arm-candy

Some of you may already have noticed that I have quite an obsession with jewellery. I find that wearing rings, bracelets and necklaces can really brighten up your look (like this one) and add so much depth to an otherwise simple and plain look. I always find that if you are wearing just a t-shirt or jumper with jeans (which is sort of my everyday uniform) then adding some flare with jewellery and accessories really helps make the look stand out.

I usually pick statement pieces which are chunky and heavy and I love to pile up bracelets and bangles with my big watches for that ‘arm swag’ look. I adore the bold look that it gives off and how it really changes up an outfit. At the same time, I do love cute intricate and dainty jewellery with diamonds, much like the pieces you can find on Tiffany. I generally like to mix and match both kinds, as I have 2 dainty silver and white gold rings with diamonds and pink sapphires in that I wear permanently (as I’m sure you have noticed) and they always seem to go well with the bigger and bolder statement items. Do you love jewellery too?

    Love love jewellery! Recently been really into minimal silver jewellery and just wear a Tiffany necklace. But I love all your chunky and funky rings (ESP the cat face and your owl pieces)! My engagement and wedding rings are from 77 Diamonds and they did a great job 🙂

    Great post! I have so much jewellery, but I almost always forget to wear any of it. I’m very good at piling on the bracelets, especially if they’re the kind that are shower-proof, but I should really start wearing my necklaces and rings more often. Thanks for the inspiration!

    I love all the different insect/animal pieces you have. The giant bird and the beetle rings are my favorite. I also like the mixing in rose gold into my accessories. The Marc Jacobs rose gold watch looks great with the cream white bracelets.

    As much as I love the look of rings and bracelets, I just simply forget to wear them. I have tons of rings in my jewellery collection, but I never wear them. That blue triangle ring is beautiful, by the way!

    I always love all your cute little animal jewellery!
    I also love jewellery, especially necklaces and occasionally bracelets and rings. They always add a bit more to an outfit I find!

    I personally don’t like wearing to many rings..I usually stick to my red heart ring that my sweetheart gave me this summer, but I love earrings and specially arm candy!! I don’t have that many bracelets..and I also have very chunky arms, so I really need to be careful when wearing them…but you pair them in a very lovely way!!! I always love seeing your accessories in the photos!!!

    In this post I specially like the last picture and the one with the pink rings!!! =D
